Calhoun Pet Supply

The big-box store has mostly squashed the neighborhood pet supply shop, but the bodega-style pet store Calhoun Pet Supply has persisted. It’s a business that, much like its sister Kyle’s Market across the intersection, has embedded itself in the fabric of its community. Sure, the selection isn’t nearly the same as PetSmart or Amazon, but it’s a carefully curated stock that owner Fuliang Zhou minds with an eye toward his neighbors and their furbabies. Just make sure you’ve set aside some extra time in your kitty litter trip. Zhou’s a talker, but that’s all part of what makes Calhoun Pet Supply a veritable local legend.
